Verdict

SHIROCCO STAR was unfancied for her racecourse debut at Nottingham but finished clear of the rest of the field in second. With improvement likely, Hughie Morrison's filly is preferred to stablemate Supaheart and gets a tentative vote. Varnish and Derivatives made only modest debuts but still make most appeal of the remainder with experience and one of the newcomers could prove a bigger danger. Of those, Fitful Skies is a half-sister to nine winners and the Godolphin filly looks one to keep a close eye on, as does Inchina, a 360,000gns daughter of Montjeu.
